The victim told police he met three suspects outside the Solo Gas Station on Randleman Road. After a conversation, the man walked behind the gas station onto West Meadowview Road with the three men. That's when the suspects demanded money from the victim, according to police.

When he refused to give them what they wanted, the suspects beat the victim before he could get away and run back to the gas station to call police.

Officers responded at 3:50 p.m.

EMS treated the victim on the scene for non-life-threatening injuries.

Police are still looking for the suspects.

The first is described as a light complexion black male in his 20's with blonde dred locks. The other two suspects are described as black males in their teens with short hair.
